The Interplay Between Colony Health Status and the Mouse Gut Microbiome

Published Date

Ideal for researchers working with mouse models, this webinar offers a practical look at how colony health status can influence research outcomes, with a special focus on the gut microbiome. We'll start with a brief overview of the gut microbiome and its relevance in biomedical research, then shift to findings from studies involving JAX mice.

The core of the presentation will highlight why colony health matters, how it connects to microbiome stability, and what strategies researchers can use to maintain clean, well-managed mouse colonies.

In this webinar, you will:

  • Understand the basics of the gut microbiome and its relevance in mouse model research
  • Learn how colony health status impacts microbiome composition and overall research reproducibility
  • Discover practical strategies for maintaining clean, healthy mouse colonies to support consistent experimental outcomes
